Medium Flex – Stiff enough for big drops, but enough torsional flex to press and tweak with ease.

C Pad – Switchback's C Pads are canted inward for enhanced anatomical alignment of your knees, ankles and joints. They create a better body position for wider and duck-footed stances.

Direct Steering – The bumper bushing is contoured with less material around the heels and toes for improved edge-to-edge response and smooth power transfer. It also helps you feel the terrain in a smooth kind of way.

Less Material – Switchback designs their baseplates with a minimal amount of rigid material touching the board's topsheet when mounted. This not only saves weight but also gives the binding and your board a more natural 360-degree flex pattern underfoot.

Bumper Corners – Switchback places a rubber bushing along the bottom rim of the binding to absorb vibration, enhance flex, and help cushion harsh landings. The corners and sides are thicker to protect your topsheet and promote flex, and the toes and heels are thinner for more direct control and terrain feel.

ST Highbacks – Provide stable ankle support for all-out tweakability.

Miller Straps – Switchback's Miller straps are milled out to save weight and make them more flexible and form fitting. The're made of a grippy and flexible TPU material and pre-curved to fit the contours of any boot. These straps aid in freestyle riding where flex and mobility are key.

Adjustable Strap Position – Switchback baseplates offer two easily adjustable strap mounting positions: a higher setting that gives you more response and boot hold, and a lower one that offers more freestyle flexibility. Play with them and find your perfect fit.

Center Adjusting Straps – Center your toe and ankle straps for proper boot fit in seconds by flipping open the latch adjustment and use the ratchet and ladder strap to find the sweet spot.

Tool Free Ladders – Switchback's straps are easy to adjust for fit and riding style and require no tools to do so. The ladder straps simply snap in, as do Switchback's highbacks and baseplate padding. No worries of losing nuts or screws.
